Popular places to visit

This image I created on campus at Appalachian State University mainly because I liked the way the trees were uniformly spaced apart and obviously deliberately and decoratively planted that way by someone in a way that they thought would be the best choice to garden the campus. This image looks beyond the trees though and shows the town of Boone through scattered buildings of apartments, classes, and downtown, all falling between the trees and the mountain view. This image encapsulates Boone’s almost perfectly balanced ratio of humanity and nature, while the human elements in the image are prevalent through the buildings, they are still overpowered/being seen through nature, which is exactly how I view Boone. #appalachianechoes

A very popular form of leisure is relaxing in an eno. Eno’s are a brand of hammocks that can practically be hung anywhere. All across the Appalachian region eno’s can be found. The come in many different colors and sizes and are very easy to set up. Eno’s are typically hung in the trees so for hikers and outdoorsman, eno’s are very convenient when you need a rest. Eno’s in my opinion are a representation of Appalachian culture. Culture is not the past but the present. Culture is made up by the currents trends and an Appalachian trend is the eno. #appalachianechoes
